Amelia Perez
Flight & Business Administrator – Executive Aviation and Travel, The Coca-Cola Company
Amelia Perez initially planned to be a pilot. But after graduating Summa Cum Laude from Vaughn College of Aeronautics and Technology with a degree in aircraft operations management, she earned an FAA aircraft dispatcher license and embarked upon a career coordinating executive travel and trip logistics at several Fortune 500 companies. She subsequently obtained an executive master of business administration degree from Pace University’s Lubin School of Business.
For her, there is nothing more exciting and rewarding than helping business to succeed. “Every day, every trip is different,” Perez said. “The best part of my job is knowing I’m helping my company grow,” she said, adding business aviation strengthens the economy, creates jobs and supports humanitarian efforts.
